Ensifer numidicus is a nitrogen fixing symbiont of Fabaceae.[1] gram-negative, aerobic, non-spore forming, rod-shaped bacterium of the family Rhizobiaceae.[2] First described in 2010;[1] more biovars have since been isolated and described[3] with ORS 1407 considered the representative organism.[4] Most examples have been found in arid and infra-arid regions of Tunisia.[5]
